Breaking News -- We're losing a star

I was chatting earlier with a Yahoo trivia group buddy of mine who lives in works in Fargo. He said representatives from both Bismarck and Pierre are negotiating a merger of the state governments. So if North Dakota and South Dakota become one state (Dakota?), we'll have to drop a star from the flag because then there will only be 49.




















And what's today's date??? :wink:

There could be a lot of sense in this being done monetarily for both states due to their small populations, but I will believe it when I see it!!!

LOL... :lol:

I knew of a man who REFUSED to believe that there WAS a "North Dakota"; he was even given round-trip airfare to Fargo, met some of the locals, and STILL didn't believe it.

I was there when he arrived, back in 1986...seems his entire life, people told "North Dakota" jokes so often, he decided that the state MUST be a fantasy, and stuck to that misconception. :roll:

April Fools Day brings back some memories for me...... I played a little joke on Chad, or so I thought, and told him I was pregnant. A week and a half later, I found out I was pregnant with Dustin! No more April Fools Day jokes for me. I'm not taking any chances, LOL.
